Vaccine reactions

[LeaningCy]

Pfizer #1 (3 weeks ago): Appt first thing in the morning, no noticeable effects that day. Next day developed a pretty bad headache, back ache, brain fog, and general fatigue. By the following day, I was back to normal.

Pfizer #2 (yesterday morning): Felt completely normal all day besides soreness at injection site. Chills/fever/headache started around 10pm leading to a very bad night of sleep. Today the headache is pretty much gone but I have lower back pain and fatigue. The headache was definitely milder this time around, but I also did a much better job of hydrating the last couple days.

24 hours post-Pfizer2, and no bad reaction symptoms to report other than a little pain at the injection site. Yay, me!

It means you're the next stage of human evolution.

I for one welcome you as my new overseer.

Funny thing for me is I've been having chills/headache/body ache without a fever every few weeks and tested negative for covid.

So if I get chills and headache on the day I get my second shot I won't even know if that's why. 3 times in 8 weeks I've had it and it lasts just one bad night.

1st Moderna just a sore arm, no other noticeable reaction. 2nd shot Wednesday, started getting chills after about 12 hours, went on a rollercoaster of chills and sweats for about 24 hours with body aches and head aches. Pretty much back to normal after 48 hours other than a mild headache when going from sitting to standing.

I'm about 28 hours since my 2nd Pfizer shot, just a little sore at the injection site. I had the same experience after the 1st shot, some pain at the site that lasted a day or two. So far, so good.

I'm not quite 24 hours since 2nd Pfizer shot. Same here. Sore arm, that's it.

I'm a few weeks into mine and I still have back aches

Well, 3 days beyond Pfizer number 2 and nothing popped up. Put me down officially for just a little injection site soreness on both. 5 stars, would do again.

Pfizer #1 (4 weeks ago): Very minor soreness at injection site in left shoulder. No other side affects

Pfizer #2 (3 days ago): Very minor soreness at injection site in left shoulder. No other side affects

Hoping I wasn't given the placebo...

Almost exactly my experience. Last night woke up 3 times drenched in sweat, but when I woke up for the day I felt pretty good. Mowing kind of wore me out though.

Significant other's grandma tested positive (they have regular tests at her home). Zero symptoms and temp check was only 98. Vaccine doing it's job.

 

[madguy30]

Any idea how long before that happens?

FYI. Looks like they're continuing the rollout as of today/tonight.

Got Pfizer 1 yesterday at 5pm. Slight headache and arm was tender. Overall, I feel good, but gonna milk it one more day for sympathy.

Watching Jimmy Kimmel talk to Anderson Cooper right now and they both bring up they were directly exposed to someone who tested "positive" to covid yet were both fine and weren't "infected" from it right after..

are you sure Cooper was talking about a COVID exposure?

 

[madguy30]

are you sure Cooper was talking about a COVID exposure?

What is this supposed to mean?

 

[motorcy90]

Yep. Him, Kimmel and some one else did an event together, Cooper flew with the person and Kimmel hugged them or vice versa they where saying, then that 3rd person tested "positive" a day or 2 after. Yet both of them were fine after.

What's your point?

I got my second Pfizer yesterday morning. Weird this was my arm was REAL sore about 5 minutes after but that quickly disappeared.
Throughout the night my arm hurt more than the first one. When I woke up this morning I did not have a headache but felt like I only slept like 4.5 hours. (I slept ~7.5 hours) This went away quick.

Today was a 'speed' running day for me. I ran my mile in 7 minutes (I'm 44 and a bit overweight) and then did some intervals. The mile time was the best I've had in several months. Next time I have a race I am going to get a Pfizer shot the day before!

Update on this. By Friday evening my head started pounding. I was asleep a little after 8. Woke up a few times but pretty much slept until 7:30. Kind of dizzy Saturday, skipped my run but was able to bike. Felt perfect by afternoon.

Pfizer number two this afternoon.

It's a good feeling knowing I won't have to wash my hands anymore.
